    What Leading Professionals are Saying

    Having now been involved with the Forum for almost 15 years, I can say that it has been one of the most consistent and grounding influences of my legal career. The community, and in particular the mentorship, that the Forum fosters is something I am incredibly grateful for. In an industry based legal practice like aviation it is important to build collaborative relationships and learn from others, and the Forum delivers on creating those opportunities for lawyers at all stages of their careers.

    I attended my first ABA Forum on Air and Space Law conference as a college student and have been involved with the Forum ever since – first as law student liaison, then young lawyer chair, then sponsorship chair, and now as program chair. The Forum offers invaluable opportunities to network with the finest legal minds in the aviation bar, and colleagues I see at our yearly conferences have become dear friends. Getting involved with the Forum is one of the best ways to stay informed about the latest legal issues facing the aviation industry – join us!
